The anticipated film about the singer Taylor Swift’s concerts during her “Iras” concert tour will be released in cinemas around the world on October 13, coinciding with its release in the United States, where it is expected to achieve great success, as it has exceeded pre-sales. Tickets cost $100 million worldwide, according to what AMC announced on Thursday, 6/10, a tally that already constitutes a record for the revenues of a feature film about a concert.

The film will be shown in 8,500 cinemas in 100 countries. “Iras” was originally supposed to be released in the United States alone, but the singer ultimately chose to make it a global event, even though the tour will be completed next year with a second part that includes dozens of concerts in South America, Europe, the United States, and Canada.
The two-hour and 48-minute film includes scenes filmed during the artist’s three concerts at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, a suburb of Los Angeles, in early August. The massive “Taylor Swift: The Era Tour” tour includes 146 concerts so far.
$1.9 billion
“Polestar” magazine, which specializes in live arts, expected the revenues of each concert to reach $13 million, meaning that the total income from the tour’s concerts would later reach about $1.9 billion. No artist or band has ever had the revenues of a concert tour exceed the symbolic threshold of one billion dollars.
Taylor Swift is a real phenomenon in the United States, breaking records every time she releases an album. At the end of last month, Swift also raised rumors about her love life and her new relationship with American football star Travis Kelce, after she appeared at a Kansas City Chiefs match alongside the player’s mother.
